--- Comment #1 from Mark Thomas <ma...@apache.org> ---
Reading RFC 2616 any one of several error codes may be appropriate (404, 410,
503). Tomcat has no way of knowing the circumstances and therefore no way of
determining which code is most appropriate. Given this, 404 is a reasonable
default.

My reading of the RFC is that the 400 series of codes is more appropriate than
the 500 series in this case.

If you would like to re-open this as an enhancement request to make the
returned code configurable in this case then please feel free to do so.
Enhancement requests with patches are more likely to be implemented than those
without.
